Ultima Underworld Query
   

I am thinking of buying Ultima Underworld for my Pocket PC. I have noticed that many people on RPGDot consider this to be one of the best RPGs of all time. Would anyone who loves Ultima Underworld mind telling me what you like about the game? I also have a couple of specific questions. Does it have a compelling story (or any story at all)? Are there any weaknesses in the game? What are the game's best features? Thanks in advance for your help.

Underworld did things that years later became the norm in gaming. It was revolutionary in that sense. The story was minimal, but the immersion was absolute. Get it, the experience is definitely worthwhile.
